Darktable documentation

A few weeks ago I mentioned that the dtdocs PR backlog was quite large. I would like to thank @elstoc and @paperdigits for their massive effort this year to clear the backlog, and additionally for making doc changes to ease future maintenance. :partying_face:

It has been great to see so many people contributing doc PRs for review, and although 2026 may not be the year of the Linux desktop, I predict it is going to be the year of up-to-date darktable documentation. :tada:

Desktops are overrated, long live the docs!

Yes! A big thank you to the new contributors. A bigger thank you to @elstoc for the continued efforts. We’ll need to get the translation app going again so we can start providing translations again.

I just merged a pretty end to end tutorial for contributing to the docs, mostly based on a post here by @hatsnp so thanks for that as well and hopefully it helps people get up to speed if they need it.
